- PM RAHAT = Prime Minister – Road Accident Victims' Hospitalisation and Assured Treatment Scheme, a statutory cashless-treatment scheme implemented by Ministry of Road Transport & Highways (MoRTH).
- Operationalises the long-pending Section 162 of the Motor Vehicles Act, 1988 (inserted by 2019 amendment) on cashless treatment during the Golden Hour.
- Examinable as a flagship welfare-cum-statutory scheme intersecting GS-II (governance, health/transport policy) and GS-III (infrastructure, road safety).
